Léa, refurbishment of a family house in Sant Cugat del Vallés

The clients asked us for a comprehensive interior design project that included the living room, kitchen, master bedroom and a study, looking for a complete and functional transformation of their home.

Kitchen

We were asked to open the kitchen to the living room as much as possible, but with the possibility of closing it at certain times.
Therefore, our proposal was to remove the connecting wall and install a glass enclosure with accordion doors, providing flexibility and luminosity in the space. In this way, it allows you to have privacy even though the spaces are separated but visually connected. Nevertheless, natural light floods the kitchen and living room, making the most of every corner, thus saving electricity.

Living room

Due to the small size of the room and the need to store a large number of books, we designed all the furniture to measure. Thus, we created a bookcase with a lacquered finish in the same tone as the wall and a TV cabinet made of oak plywood, achieving a harmonious and functional integration.
Also, as the house had no entrance hall, we designed a wooden slat separator to differentiate the entrance door from the sofa area, providing privacy and an aesthetic touch.

Room

In the main room, we divided two areas:

A dressing room with made-to-measure lacquered wardrobes and mouldings.
The other sleeping area is decorated with wallpaper to create a warmer and cosier atmosphere.

The furniture we use for the bedroom, such as the bedside tables, is made of synthetic fibre, with a black metal structure at the base and a high stand. The bed is a top quality double bed. The carpets are made of wool, long-lasting materials that achieve a perfect combination between modern and comfortable. While the chest of drawers is handmade, made of wood with bronze fittings.

Finally, in the study, we added a wardrobe to complement the missing clothes storage space in the master bedroom. We also designed a bespoke desk to create a practical and useful work area. To provide an extra bed, we incorporated an armchair bed, ensuring the versatility of the space. In a space like this, we play a lot with the measurements of the furniture so that it can be used as a guest room or, as in this case, as a study or small office.
This project has been an opportunity to demonstrate our ability to adapt to the needs of our clients, creating tailor-made spaces that combine efficiency, style and comfort.

Exterior

On the exterior of the house we carried out an architectural restoration, where we focused on revitalising the façade of a single-family house in the modernist style, using an acrylic mortar cladding that offers both protection and an aesthetic appearance. This material, known for its durability and versatility in finishes, was applied together with perimeter framing that highlights and defines the structure of the building. In addition, we incorporated new ornamental wrought iron railings, which add a classic and elegant touch with their intricate designs, complementing the restoration with refined details.

The use of natural stone wall coverings reinforces the quality and aesthetics of the project, providing a natural texture and colour that brings a timeless character to the façade. Our choice of these materials and the detailed design reflect our commitment to historical authenticity, seeking not only to preserve the original modernist style, but also to adapt the structure to contemporary needs without losing its historical essence.
